And like many Sherlockians who released books via major publishing houses, Harrison also fired off the occasional small/private press gem which is rare enough to make acquiring a copy a bit of a (often times pleasant) challenge but common enough where by one can be bought for under $100.
So it is with Michael Harrison's 'Cynological Mr Holmes: Conanical Canines Considered'; a 60 page Magico Magazine publication celebrating canines found frolicking throughout the canon along with a smattering of dog drawings. If you're interested, Harrison cites 12 significant 'dog-mentions' in The Canon: Trevor's bull-terrier, Mrs. Hudson's ailing terrier (euthanized by Holmes in STUD), the dog that did nothing in the nighttime, the missing guard-dog (very telling), the lovable Toby, the ill-fated 'hound' from HOUN, vicious Carlo (the Mastiff), sad Carlo (the Spaniel), Pompey, the grieving Spaniel from Shoscombe, Wolf-Hound Roy (natural enemy of the monkey) and the poor Airedale Terrier whose fate was sadly sealed by the Lion's Mane (p. 37). A perfect little book for a dog day afternoon. ( )
